Introduction to Electric Underground Inspections

Electric Underground Inspections can be used to conduct inspection campaigns and monitor the condition of electric underground assets.

Underground electric utilities are not immune to weather damage and are vulnerable to equipment issues. When underground systems are damaged, repairs can be time-consuming, and estimates suggest it can take almost twice as long to repair. Electric utilities can reduce these operations and maintenance costs by implementing a routine underground inspection program that identifies defects and safety issues before an asset fails. Electric Underground Inspections is typically implemented by electric utilities that want to modernize their underground inspection program and keep track of the inspection history of each underground asset.

The Electric Underground Inspections solution delivers a set of capabilities that help you organize underground asset inspection campaigns, assess the condition of assets in the field, monitor the progress of inspection campaigns, and understand the current condition of electric underground assets.
